The following description of the monument has been published by Bergh (1995, 233): ‘Nearly due W, and very close to the cairn [SL014-231----], there is a small, slightly irregular cairn with a largest diameter of c. 6m and a height of c. 0.6m. This cairn is mainly constructed by gneiss fieldstones with a size of 0.1-0.4m. Nearly due E. of the cairn, and 7m from base of the cairn, there is a stone packing measuring 3 x 3m. It seems to consist of only a single layer of stones with a size of 0.2-0.3m.’ (Bergh 1995, 233; Fig. 31, 235) Compiled by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 19 May 2016
